Visitors, Tourists, and residents in the UAE must pay the fine if they stay in the country after their visa expires. One of the interesting topic that I will cover in this post is how to check overstay fine in UAE.
To check the overstay fine in the UAE you should visit the ICP (Federal Authority for Idendity Citizenship, Custome and Port security) website and follow the following steps;
- Go over the services area: When you access the ICP website, look for the public services option and click on it.
Many services would be available there. Scroll down until you find “pay fine” for your convenience I’ve provided a direct link here.
2. Enter the required Information: To obtain the result, you must input the necessary information including;
-
- File number: you would find it on your visa. It has divided into 4 part: DEPARTMENT/YEAR/SERVICES/SQUENCE
- On the second place, enter your birth date.
- Check I am not a robot and search.
- The result will be shown.Â

The UAE government will only charge you an overstay fine once your grace period has expired. The visit and tourist visa grace period is 10 days.
The residency visa grace period ranges from 30 to 180 days, depending on the professional level.
